Nice going to get there goobee. I got the front 9 a couple of weeks only to leave a 9 pin on a good shot in the 10th. I rather miss and leave a single pin on a good shot than totally blow it on a bad shot.

Thanks Bill. What's funny is, when I missed on the 10th ball, I was a little nervous.

A few weeks later time when I strung 9, I wasn't even thinking when I got to 11. I thought, is this 10 or 11? Mentally, I was not keeping track. I wasn't anxious at all when threw the 11th ball. A nice arc to the pocket which left a wobbly 10-pin.

Bob Leffert had the first shot at 300 when he shot 296 in March 1923. In a touch of folklore, Bob threw that ball to a watery grave in the Wildcat Creek a number of weeks later. Bob just couldn’t seem to throw strikes with that ball anymore. He thought he had used them all up in his 300 game.

McHenry Rec. (were I bowl) is on the east side of the Fox river, most of us cross the bridge on the way home, I do believe there's more then one ball that's been tossed over the bridge.
